     I am currently working on a new book about how it is important for us to connect with the past titled Seeing the Past; Lessons from a Yankee Millright.   Seeing the Past is about how our lives are the product of those who have come before us and by examining their lives and the times in which they lived it is possible to draw lessons for our own.   Though often  hidden, these lessons of history are always around us as we go about our daily lives, simply waiting to be discovered no matter where we live.  
      
     In Seeing the Past I follow the lives of a 19th Century millright by the name of Milo Todd and his ancestors and examine,through their life struggles, how the past can come alive to connect with us across time and place.  The result is a deeper sense of place and thus a deeper understanding of who we were, are, and will be.
